    Any advice on who I can talk to about doing some custom stuff for this game?

    First, I'd love to get some new decals printed. I want to keep the bride as she is, but with a different background color, probably black.

    Next, I'll go to either Alex (Pinchroma) or Matt (Back Alley) to get a chrome-like finish on the game's armor.

    Finally, I'd like to put in a chrome-like apron as a replacement. I suppose maybe this is the same Alex or Matt answer as above to match, but I'd love to know any feedback on sourcing custom elements for this game.

    I want to do something cool, but I don't need the world's first $8K BoP either.

    Thanks,

    I did a custom 3 stage fade for Greg Davis on his bop. Came out amazing. Let me see if I can find the link.

    Here it is. Custom color matched purple and silver leg fade.

    Does anyone know where I would start to get someone to do custom decals (same Bride artwork with a different background color)? This would be similar to what GAP did with the B&W Twilight Zone.

    I love a ton of your stuff, some of your colors are sick! However, the fade is not my thing. The matched purple is cool, but I'm actually hoping to do custom decals without the purple in them. I'd like the look of chrome, but I have a chrome game already and I don't need another fingerprint magnet. How chrome-y could you get powder? What else might look cool with the robot theme?

    #5 10 years ago

    Chrome powder isn't great. It never looks like chrome. Your best bet is silver gloss. If you look at the coin door or the bottom of the legs thats the silver.

    I could do superchrome with a clear on it but i can tell you it's not chrome

    Are you looking for one of a kind mods or mods in general for BoP? I have a few different mods that I can post links where they were bought if you are interested.

    Just in general. Links would be cool. I'm not looking to junk up the playfield like TZ, but a few cool things might be nice. I never see much stuff for this game.

    I am going to be doing this on my restore I am in the middle of. I like the darker caps on yours. (The ones I was going to get from Marco were more transparent.) Since I am going with the black cabinet decals, I want to add as much purple back to it. I already have the purple under cabinet lighting.
